Fantastic hotel!

We stayed at Hotel International Au Lac for three nights in early August - two rooms for two adults, two teenagers, and our dog. And it was an absolute delight from start to finish.

An amazing hotel with wonderful staff

Wow! What an amazing hotel. It is so charming, is right on the lake, has a lovely terrace and a pool. The breakfast was absolutely delicious. Our room was so comfortable and clean. The hotel gives you passes which you can use for public transportation (busses, trains, funiculars). We took full advantage of that perk! The hotel staff was outstanding! My husband had injured himself in another city and as time went on, it was clear he needed to see a doctor. The staff not only recommended a hospital, but even called the emergency room to see how long the wait was to be seen by a doctor. They really went above and beyond! I highly recommend this hotel.

Phenomenal stay. Booked last minute having never been to Lugano or really knowing anything about the city. Lucked out by staying at this amazing hotel. Room was perfect. Staff were absolutely lovely and kind and helpful. Patio drinks were so good. Self service bar is a great idea. Location cannot be beat if you are traveling by train since it is only a short walk from and to the station. We loved our stay and would recommend this hotel to anyone.
